Art/Literary - Folklore / lucrare stiintifica | | Romanian term or phrase: dolia | - lexicul ritualurilor de trecere: dolia, sălaş, iritic, vedre, capete, etc
Sincer, nu gasesc o explicatie ca lumea a cuvantului "dolie" nici macar in limba romana. Nu stiu exact daca se refera la un tip de vas (domeniu: ceramica) sau la mortaria (cimitir). |

Două probleme ce revin frecvent în discuţie încă din perioada interbelică, reluate şi în unele studii mai noi, sunt constituite de provenienţa vaselor de provizii de tip dolia şi de motivele decorative de origine geto-dacică prezente pe ceramica ştampilată.

Recipientele pentru conservare (dolia) si vasele de bucatarie lucrate pe roata rapida (oale, cratite, strecuratori, capace) sunt atestate prin foarte putine exemplare, aproape în exclusivitate locale.

se pare că are legătură și cu moartea.....
Dolium
(πίθος). A large jar of earthenware into which new wine was placed to ferment. Many of them were large enough to hold a man, and were shaped like a huge caldron with globular bodies and wide mouths. Diogenes (q.v.) the Cynic took up his abode in a dolium (not in a tub, as popularly said), and in some ancient works of art he is depicted as lolling in one of these vessels during his celebrated interview with Alexander the Great. See Diog. Laert.vi. 23; Plin. Ep.90Plin. Ep., 14.
Dolia curta were urinals placed in the narrow streets between the houses for the convenience of those who passed by (Lucret. iv. 1026; Macrob. iii. 16. 15; Suet. Vesp.23).
Dolia were also used as coffins. In the Crimea, near Sebastopol, sixteen πίθοι were discovered, four feet four inches high, and two feet two inches in diameter.
Makers of dolia were known as doliarii.
Mortarium
(ὅλμος, θύεια), in Latin also Pila. A mortar, used in early times for pounding grain, over which act the domestic deity Pilumnus (q.v.) presided. They were made of either wood or stone, and occasionally of baked white clay. Besides its primitive use, the mortar was also employed in pounding drugs, making perfumes, paint, plaster, and drugs, and in some of the processes of ancient metallurgy. The philosopher Anaxarchus was pounded to death in a mortar with iron pestles. See Mola; Pila.
